I found a cute maxi dress that looks pretty good on me, picture below (because my original link did not work). I also found a cute shrug to go with it, because I am more comfortable with something covering me with this dress. I was very happy, but alas I can not wear it because I have no shoes to go with it. I was thinking of a white sandal, closed toe. My big toe has a funky nail at this time and would really not be comfortable showing it off. I thought it would be simple finding a white sandal, but I can not, at least at a price I am willing to pay. I am not working this summer so money is a concern. To make it even more fun, I need a wide shoe, 8 wide to be exact. I have looked online and in stores. Here is a pair I am considering, White Sandal but not sure yet. If anyone has a secret place to buy the shoe I am describing I would love to see it.

I like the look of wedge sandals with maxi dresses. It probably has to do with the fact that I'm short. If you are tall these may not work for you.

Run your request through the Zappo's search filters. If you find a shoe, you could then price it around. But Zappos is great for free shipping in both directions and if you order before 1 you get the package the next day! I Love Zappos!

You could also try Zappo's outlet: 6pm.com It's closeouts and last year's shoes but some good prices

While they are not my style I say go for what makes you comfortable. I think that style is called huaraches And I saw a list the other day with 10 shoes of summer and they were on it. I don't think shoes get much notice when wearing a maxi anyway so I say wear what makes you feel good.

Oops that was meant to be a question mark as I don't know what that face means. Please don't take offense!

I love the shoes Scorpeo showed. They would be very nice with that dress.

I like the espadrilles - I think they look better than the original shoes.

Cute dress, but I don't think the shoes you linked to would go very well with it.
If the only issue with a different type of shoe is your toenail, maybe you could paint your toes or apply some of those sticker-style applications to cover up and then wear some sandals that match the dress a bit better.

They make press on toenails, for real. I'd go that route and some strappy sandals.

Love the dress!
The shoes - eh. But you're quite limited with closed toe shoes.
Keep looking!

I am anti- white sandals in general so that is impacting my reply. If you want to cover your toes...

Sorry, I'm not a fan of the sandals, nor white w/that dress. I would opt for a darker/silvery-platinum wedge-sandal. I'll try to find an example.

O M G I want that dress!!! I love maxi dresses and have about (10) but I really like this one!
I wear white sandals all the time and like white with it. I also have teal, navy, black and grey. If you have a bad toe the shoes from amazon are nice. I need to wear comfortable shoes now and they look great.
I have some copper/brownish ones I got at Marshall's last summer that would be great, too. They have a high heel though, but are closed toe sandals.
